We can't do that here. It won't pass inspection. On a prewire, the wire
needs to be run to a mudring or, if on a fire wall, into a fire rated box.
That establishes the location at prewire. My biggest problem, when someone
else prewires, is that they don't leave enough room between the light switch
and the keypad location causing a conflict. It is nothing more than lazyness
because they don't want to build out the stud if it is mounted next to the
light switch. If they mount it above, there is no consistancy because there
is no code or standard for height unless it is to be ADA compliant.  Either
that or they are so far off, any type of alignment, that it looks like
schmitt.
